As I turned a corner, I saw a figure move quickly 1 the trees and out of my sight. The forest was dark, so I couldn't really see if the figure was a man or a woman. It seemed to be a large figure, and he or she wore a straw hat that covered the head. Usually I would have called 2 to the stranger, but there was something 3 the forest that made me timid. I hurried to the house and kept looking 4 the right and left for another glimpse of the figure. I came into a clearing and could see the house across a lawn. It was an unusual house for the area. It was compact and rose like a tower 5 the hill. From the windows you must have a view of the entire valley.
